Music to Move You! - Rare Soul & 60's Dance Music with DJ Mod Myke

We’re digging deeper than ever into the crates this week at MtMY. While we’re staying true to our stash of Northern Soul and raw Garage Rock, we’re taking a scenic detour into the gritty, the funky, and the flat-out strange. From 70s crossover and funky gospel to some "instrumental weirdness" from the likes of Velvett Fogg and the Norman Petty Trio, this set is a soulful journey you have to hear to believe. We’re spinning everything from Louisiana Red and Bobby Bland to the high-octane medleys of The Magnificent Men—all on original vinyl, all upbeat, and all rare. The needle is dropping now!

This week on Music to Move You on Working Class Radio, we’re digging straight into the very boxes K.VALNTYN and I hauled to Rescue Me Soul Club last Friday. That means another all-rare soul workout—classics, deep cuts, and a few gems that might be brand new to you. From Donnie Elbert and The Contours to Skull Snaps, Jackie Shane, and the mighty Four Tops, these are the records that kept the dancefloor moving. It’s dusty wax, heavy grooves, and zero filler. Turn it up—this stack was built for motion.

This week’s show opens in deep-freeze mode—winter tunes for everyone frozen from the Deep South to Minneapolis, with snow on the ground and treacherous ice everywhere. From there, we warm things up with a soulful glide into mid-tempo Northern Soul that pulls at your emotions while it gets your feet moving. The ride keeps building with driving protest funk and sharp-edged mod jazz, all chosen to keep your pulse up while the temperature drops. It’s a perfect soundtrack for surviving winter—layer up, turn it loud, and let the groove thaw you out.

This week’s show takes off on a special route—an hour-long flight aboard Jamaican Airlines, cruising through reggae and ska covers of classic soul. After departure from Motown, we ease into island time with smooth rocksteady rhythms and ska shuffles that reimagine familiar favorites. Along the way, we touch down in Detroit, Memphis, Chicago, and Muscle Shoals, with quick layovers in Omaha, Minneapolis, Boston, and L.A. It’s a laid-back but deeply grooving journey that slows the pace without losing the heartbeat. Fasten your seatbelt, settle in, and enjoy the ride—this flight is all soul, island-style.

This week’s show closes out 2025 and leads us into our two-year anniversary with purpose and heart. Looking back, I realized I didn’t spend enough time honoring the artists we lost this year—so this hour is dedicated entirely to them. We’ve curated a powerful mix of soul, reggae, and rock that reflects the sounds and spirit they gave us. It’s not a somber farewell, but a celebration of rhythm, joy, and legacy—music meant to be played loud, shared, and danced to. Join us as we say thank you the best way we know how: by letting the records spin.
